The Pilot Point Lady Cats powerlifting team racked their weights for the final time this season after competing at the 2026 Texas High School Women’s Powerlifting Association State Meet on March 19.
Three Lady Cats qualified for the event in Bert Ogden Arena in Edinburg, with all three recording Top 10 finishes.
“The girls in 114 [pound weight class] finished a little bit ahead of where they went in, and while Alliyah [Smith] didn’t have her best day there, she still did well,” said Robby Perez, Pilot Point head powerlifting coach. “They’re great kids, and the best thing about it for them is that they’re all juniors, and they get the opportunity to try and do this again. They were talking right after the meet and saying, ‘Next year I want to break this record,’ so it’s already in their heads.”
